ABERCORN SURVEYORS LTD (REGISTERED NUMBER: 05384624)

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2017

1. STATUTORY INFORMATION

Abercorn Surveyors Ltd is a private company, limited by shares , registered in England and Wales. The
company's registered number and registered office address can be found on the Company Information page.

The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£).


2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE

These financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the provisions of Section 1A "Small Entities" of Financial Reporting Standard 102 "The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland" and the Companies Act 2006. The company is a private company and transitioned from previously extant UK GAAP to FRS102 as at 1 April 2015. The only changes from the reported financial statements under UK GAAP to the current position under FRS102 was to transfer the revaluation reserve of £1,779 into the profit and loss reserve.

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of preparing the financial statements
The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention as modified by the revaluation of certain assets.

The financial statements cover this company as an individual entity. Rounding is to the nearest Pound (£).

Significant judgements and estimates
The preparation of financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions
that affect the amount reported for assets and liabilities at the balance sheet date and the amounts reported for
revenues and expenses during the year. However, the nature of estimation means that actual outcomes could
differ from those estimates. The judgements and estimates having had the most significant effect on any amounts
are recognised in the financial statements in the year they are discovered.

Turnover and revenue recognition
Turnover represents net invoiced sales of services, excluding value added tax, and is derived from the ordinary
activities. Revenue is recognised when services have been rendered and are invoiced to the customer.

Tangible fixed assets
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life.
Freehold property - 2% on cost
Fixtures and fittings - 15% on reducing balance
Computer equipment - 33% on cost

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - continued
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2017

3. ACCOUNTING POLICIES - continued

Investment property
No depreciation is charged to investment property as it is held at fair value in accordance with FRS102 (Section
1A) regulations.

This represents a departure from the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 however this method of valuation
is deemed to be appropriate:

i) management has concluded that the financial statements present fairly the entity's financial position, financial
performance and cash flows.
ii) it has complied with applicable legislation, except that is has departed from a particular requirement of
applicable legislation to achieve fair presentation.
iii) to comply with the Companies Act 2006 a depreciation charge would be required against investment property
which would conflict with the objective of the financial statements set out in FRS 102 (Section 1A).

Any changes to the fair value is transferred to the Other Comprehensive Income statement. Depreciation or
amortisation is only one of the many factors reflected in the valuation and the amount of depreciation which
might have been charged cannot be separately identified or quantified.

Financial instruments
Basic financial instruments of debtors, bank and cash balances, bank loans and creditors are all recognised at
cost.

Financial instruments are defined as a contract which gives rise to a financial asset of one entity and a financial
liability or equity instrument of another entity.

Basic financial instruments are classified under section 11 of FRS102 and are held at amortised cost. These
include cash, trade debtors and creditors, bank loans and other non-complicated loans.

Other financial instruments which are classified under section 12 of FRS102 and are measured as at fair value
through the profit or loss.

Taxation
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to
the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity.

Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted.

Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or
substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.

Deferred tax
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance
sheet date.

Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from
those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that
have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the
timing difference.

Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they
will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits.

Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension
scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate.
